Excellent Filter

I use 3 of these filters, one feeds two freezer ice machines, second one for a drinking water faucet at the kitchen sink and a third one for a bar ice machine. The city water here is terrible but these filters do an excellent job of producing clean clear water that tastes like water should.

Misleading product page

It says on the product page on the website that it filters out Lead, but nowhere and I mean nowhere on the product packing itself does it say that it filters out lead. So does this filter lead or doesn't it? Your guess is as good as mine.

Yes, the WLC-R filter can be used with the CCF-201 filtration unit. It serves as an upgraded replacement to the original unit filter.
